Lee makes his TT dream come true in Classic style +44 07919 321109 david.binch@binchprojects.co.uk www.binchprojects.co.uk Lee makes his TT dream come true in Classic style Race report from the Belfast Telegraph On the opening lap of four for the Lightweight race, McLean was first to Glen Helen on his Binch Racing 250cc Yamaha, less than a second ahead of Ian Lougher with Johnston on the Padgetts Honda a further five seconds back in third. By the Bungalow, Maguiresbridge rider Johnston had clawed back Lougher's advantage to move into second spot, some four seconds behind McLean. Lap two saw Johnston reel in McLean and take the race lead before Ballaugh Bridge, coming in for his re-fuelling stop a second and a half ahead. McLean had the faster pit stop, reducing Johnston's advantage to a third of a second at Glen Helen on lap three. But from there to the chequered flag, it was all about the 'General' extending his lead mile after mile and setting the fastest lap of the race at 117.919mph on his final circuit to win by 29 seconds from McLean with Lougher 43 seconds further back in third. After his second Classic TT win, Johnston said: "The plan was to enjoy the race and win at the slowest possible speed. I always dreamt of winning a TT race on a two-stroke and I just wish I had been born 20-years earlier and this was the TT. Despite his battle with illness, New Zealander Anstey was there to congratulate Johnston and completed a parade lap of the course on the Padgetts RCV Honda he won on at the Ulster Grand Prix last year. "I have to thank Bruce Anstey for letting me ride the bike he won this race on in the last two years and also Clive Padgett for making my dream become reality.“ McLean said: "It's only my second time here, so that'll do nicely. I really enjoyed it considering I only saw the bike at the start of the week."
